Born in 1926, Ben Sharman grew up without a father in a working class family in the village of Burgh St. Peter, England. Despite having only an Elementary School education and going to work full time as a farm laborer at the age of fourteen, he went on to have a lengthy international career that included stints as an R.A.F. Radio Operator, Labor Representative, Peace Corp Volunteer, High School and Graduate School Teacher, Agricultural Co-Operative Innovator, U.N. Agency Official and many other roles. This, his first volume of a planned two volume memoir, is remarkable for its easy reading, front row seat to English, American and the rest of the World history during WWII and the early Cold War. With humor and matter of fact charm, Ben relays his dramatic good fortune spanning many life events.
